Path Traversal in Allure Report 2.x Allows Arbitrary File Read

Publication date: 2026-03-20

Last updated on: 2026-04-14

Assigner: GitHub, Inc.

Description
Allure 2 is the version 2.x branch of Allure Report, a multi-language test reporting tool. The Allure report generator prior to version 2.38.0 is vulnerable to an arbitrary file read via path traversal when processing test results. An attacker can craft a malicious result file (-result.json, -container.json, or .plist) that points an attachment source to a sensitive file on the host system. During report generation, Allure will resolve these paths and include the sensitive files in the final report. Version 2.38.0 fixes the issue.

Executive Summary

The vulnerability in Allure Report version 2.x prior to 2.38.0 allows an attacker to perform an arbitrary file read through path traversal. This happens when the report generator processes test result files. An attacker can create a malicious result file that references a sensitive file on the host system as an attachment source. When the report is generated, Allure resolves these paths and includes the sensitive file contents in the final report.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability can lead to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive files on the host system. An attacker exploiting this flaw can access confidential information by crafting malicious test result files that cause Allure to include sensitive data in generated reports. This can compromise the confidentiality of data and potentially expose critical information to unauthorized parties.
